Sometimes I think it is because the KT's biggest days were from late 1958 to early 1961 (when Dave was reported to leave I think that effected their popularity, I have met people in my time that believe KT ended for them when Dave left) This time period is a mere 2 1/2 years. Yes, KT with John had hits and sold almost as well.......almost as well. So this time period is at best short.
So here are the two roads that might have imbedded the KT into history more.
1. KT integrates Dave's musical ideas into their repertoire. And stayed Dave, Bob and Nick for a few decades.
2. KT first stays with Capitol Records and their "sound studios" and they stay together for a few decades.
In either hypothetical case the KT would fall into a rather long period of diminished popularity but over time the music audience would return to a degree recognizing their talent and lasting appeal.
Just a dream.
